    I am totally convinced.... I'd like to go ahead and pull this thread down. The masses have spoken, and I agree. Magic is the perfect place for the EC summit....

    Is 2/27 cool with everyone? New poll time?

    This is bluebird. I don't feel like signing out and back in as me. I have heard rumors that the Eagles Nest house is rentable this year. For anyone that has been to Magic it is the house right on the bottom of Lower Magic Carpet, spitting distance from the Red Chair. Rumor has it that is sleeps an absurd amount of people. It would be the perfect house. I would love to ask the owners about renting it, but honestly, do you think we can NOT wreck it in a weekend? Obviously we handle Ullrfest fine and have gathered at others houses without isssue, but before I try to get a house full of maggots into this house I need some peace of mind that it won't be a complete f'ing disaster.

    If you need a reference, you best look elsewhere....


    I have a feeling things would be fine. It sounds like they cater to large groups and are bound to expect a certain level of partying to go on. Everyone I've ever met (okay, except that Nihiles, character) is very cool and respectable. Ullrfest has always gone off without a hitch and that's pretty remarkable. It sounds absolutely perfect, too. I'd say book it!

    Where did they get that pic of TC?

    Bluebird, we are going in on this house that weekend (for the record). I am not missing out on this shit show/extravaganza. You & I already miss many hours of maggot debauchery on the weekends due to work and baby duties. I think we need to really get after it that weekend.

    2/27 at Magic? That's the day of the Magic Extreme Comp, right?? I was planning on coming up for that anyways, and would be stoked to meet some maggots. I'll definitely throw down on that house, and have at least a 5 gal of homebrew to bring with. Someone just PM me with details!

    Sounds like someone needs to pony up and Chair/Co-Chair this event or it may never happen...

    Is the plan to reserve that house for the nights of the 26th/27th since there is a two night minimum stay and those would be party nights? I would support some kind of accommodations incentive for those that come up with the cash and make the reservation, and then a sliding scale for room/bed/floor space. Personally I just need a place to throw down a sleeping pad and bag as I don't expect the SO to accompany me.

    Here's the list of beds available, who is going to call dibs? Each King/Queen needs two names.

    Top Floor King #1:
    Top Floor King #2:
    Top Floor Queen:

    Mezzanine King:
    Mezzanine Queen #1:
    Mezzanine Queen #2:

    Game Room Single #1:
    Game Room Single #2:
    Game Room Single #3:
    Game Room Single #4:
    Game Room Single Pull-out:

    I sent an e-mail to Jean Young, the proprietor to find out the details of making the reservation, payment, etc. Going out to *ski* now, will check back in later.

    Not sure if this is worth another thread but should I be pissed that nobody from Eagles Nest asked permission to use my image?




    Normally I don't care when stuff I shoot winds up in the Magic marketing material because its helping the mountain, and I'm no pro photo guy, but this seems different for some reason.

    In any event if they were looking for photos of TC, this is a much better shot!

    For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

    FUCK! I just saw this... It's just my luck that my best friends' bachelor party is on the night of the 27th. If I didn't have shit-eating, suck-a-cock luck, I wouldn't have any. I really do hate my fucking luck...

    my mother, who was active in the 60s always said that getting naked never hurt anyone back then. im pretty sure that shit holds true today.

    ADDIT: just went over to the site to check the rates and saw that its already reserved for that weekend by bobby brown and since he just killed it pretty good at xgames i dont think were gonna be able to bump him out. did anyone not notice that or did it just happen?

    (could bobby brown be planning to slay the magic comp as a follow up to xgames? FAK!)

    Yep, I just got an e-mail back from Jean that it's been booked for that weekend.

    Other options?

    Checked some alternative rentals and many are already booked for the weekend of 2/27 or claim to sleep far less people. This was the closest I came across... says it sleeps 14 and is available the weekend of 2/27 if the website is right. http://www.vrbo.com/272181

    The Inn at Magic (right at the base) has suites that sleep four and I've gotten them for just over $100/night in the past (online). Might be worth checking into (I have no idea if I can get to VT that weekend, but for the rest of you it might work out). Nice place.
